Is Oprah or her retinue visiting Hunter wine country? A visit is rumoured but she has better security than the White house. We need an OpraGate to breach security but would this lead to censorship and exile into cyber outerspace which has happened over revelations around top global issues and Oprah's visit to Australia is far more serious than all that.

Freedom of speech is at issue according to some who study web leaks. Are we currently matching China in matters of censorship of the search engines?
Not outdone yet, WikiLeaks is 'mirrored' on 76 web sites.

Newer faster broadband is very welcome providing the wisest method is chosen and the implementation is regulated by those who are one step ahead of potential fraud.
New broadband services are declared as of unlimited benefit to our society. But how good? The global financial crisis was not averted. And consider the risk of empowerment of all and sundry. Hacking could knockout the essential service web sites as well as the controversial sites.

THE future.... restating the obvious at the time of the Copenhagen summit Dec 09

Outstanding films are made about natural history. Weknow much more about nature than ever before. Every aspect of habitat and biodiversity is demonstrated before us in stunning images. Yet, it is perverse. Does this influence our reactions to nature? To the global community? Are we influenced towards conservation and towards lessening the pressures on the environment by significant change to our lifestyle. We are interdependent with nature. It is vital. What is the excuse for inaction, for instance, loss of species, for one, would be self-evident to believers and unbelievers of climate change alike.Who will change the impact of their western lifestyle? It takes much more than doing away with plastic shopping bags!Perhaps the glossy wildlife films about bounteous and rich, remote environments are really only a form of entertainment and escapism. The reality of our local communities and their stand offs with nature will never be related in our mind with the glamourous nature films nor seen as every bit as vital. To rehash: Climate, conservation, economy, global warming and sustainability are not separate concerns. An organic approach makes the most sense, nay, is the only valid approach to a combination of challenges.
